Main Features
·
Simultaneous optical and 4 channels of electrical recording
· Software control of a shutter and a stimulator
· 3 available modes of acquisition - live (for alignment etc.), record
- for time dependent experiment and single frame acquisition.
User
Interface:
This
user interface controls our new CCD and CMOS systems. In
these systems
the electrical
recording AtoD
converter is built into the camera controller to improve
synchronization. Camera
parameters, mode of acquisition, trigger, file names and histogram range are controlled from the
right coloum.
The display of the image(s), and traces is controlled from the
tool box and sliders in the main part of the screen.
Additional
Information
camera
configuration :
Spatial
configurations are camera dependent. The spatial resolution and area
dimensions determine the maximal time resolution of the recording.
The number of frames determines the length of a recording. Different camera
gains are available for different levels of available light.
Also
under user's control :
1. Trigger
mode (on/off).
2. Pre-trigger period (ms) recording.
3. File name and overwriting.
4. Histogram range.
5. 3 types of of ROIs for time
dependent display.
6. Low/high pass filters for time-dependent
traces.
